Eagle Update - Summer 2020
Soar Like An Eagle!
Summer Update
As we move forward with communication in the upcoming weeks we will use this newsletter platform to share relevant updates and information. We will also be sure to include any district updates that are posted or shared as well. We will send the newsletter each Monday so that we all get back in the groove of checking and expecting the weekly newsletter.
Typically by this time we have a lot more 'nuts and bolts' type of information for you related to conferences, concerts, celebrations, Open House, Picture Day, etc. I know that we all like to have those calendar dates as soon as possible. As plans for the upcoming school year are developed we will share this information as soon as we can. I know that we also understand that flexibility will once again be key moving into the upcoming year and scheduled events could change.
To all of our new families we are so very excited that you will be joining our school community! Rose Glen truly is an amazing school and it really is a special place! Rose Glen has a way of capturing your heart and that is because of the commitment of our families, staff, and students to our school. This year will look a little different, but together we can still make it a great experience for our kids.
My hope is that you all have been enjoying your summer. It has certainly been a warm one this year! I am sure that pools, sprinklers, and lakes have been enjoyed by all. Please reach out if you have any questions as we move into the upcoming weeks and approach the start of the school year.

Your input is critical in helping us reach that goal. Your engagement with the 2020 Return to School Family Survey, emails, phone calls, and messages are vitally important. We read and listen to them.
The 2020 Return to School Family Survey received 7,523 responses equating to a 65% response rate, which far exceeded our expectations. The response rate gives us more than enough to reach a statistically significant conclusion for this survey. As part of the survey, you submitted hundreds of comments and suggestions; we reviewed them all. The preliminary results of the survey are attached.
Please note that these are district-wide results. We will release additional surveys over the next few weeks. The first will be for our educators, staff, and administration. That survey will be released by close of business Friday, July 3, 2020. Please continue to provide your input and encourage others to complete the upcoming surveys.
We are working closely with Aramark regarding food service. Aramark appears well prepared to implement all likely reopening scenarios and to adapt throughout the school year. Aramark presented their capabilities to us this week, and that presentation is attached. This is not the final recommendation of the Committee, but we wanted to present you with Aramark’s thoughts. We will keep you updated as this issue progresses to a proposed solution.
We are also working with First Student to determine the best way to address bussing. As you can imagine, this is a complex issue involving not only student safety but logistics and expenses. We will keep you updated as we reach a recommendation.
We continue to review the current statistics and ever-evolving status of the COVID-19 pandemic. We want to keep our school doors open. We are working hard to implement infection mitigation controls.
We regularly review CDC, DHHS, Wisconsin, and Waukesha County statistical information and are also speaking with healthcare professionals. As the landscape changes, we adapt.
Thank you again for all that you are doing to help us reach our goal.
Sincerely,
Corey A. Montiho
Board of Education Representative
